Chapter 64 The Great Song Dynasty who loves to show off his wealth
When it came to the day when the banquet was agreed, the four people dressed as dogs got into the four light sedan chairs. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In the squeaky sound, they arrived at the house of Liu Qian, the head of the treasure store, on time.
In accordance with the etiquette of this time, they brought four-color gifts.
A wooden box of cigarettes, a box of matches, a crystal ball, and a music box.
These are packed in a four-color brocade box, wrapped in brocade.
Of course, every step they take has to be planned.
In their hands, even if it is a piece of paper, even if it is a torn panties, it must play its maximum role!
I don't want to be a rich smuggler, not a good middle-aged uncle.
Tobacco is still lonely in South America.
However, Zhang Guoan is sure that it will bloom and grow leaves in 1265 and will circulate in the time and space of the Great Song Dynasty.
Like chili peppers, this is their own need.
Song Ziqiang repeatedly said that next time, he couldn't bring things to cross over, and he felt more and more that the reason for the disappearance of energy was because he brought too many things when he crossed......
But it's a must to go back with something, otherwise there's no point in traversing!
Therefore, they supported Zhang Guoan to multiply some of the things they needed under the sky of the Great Song Dynasty.
As they spent more time in the time and space of the Great Song Dynasty, everyone tried to seize the time to feel the lost youth.
What is truly good will always be lost very quickly.
They kept walking around, observing everything in this Lin'an City.
The vitality of youth, flowing everywhere in their bodies, unhindered, not tired at all.
Looking back, they feel ashamed that they are often deceived, but that is all in the past.
The past cannot be admonished, but the future can still be chased!
As for matches and lighters, they will also come up with them in the future, and this is not difficult.
A young man said that China was the first country to invent matches.
It's so interesting that they think of the "candle" used to start a fire as a match that can start a fire spontaneously.
The crystal ball and music box are now about to be officially launched.
Giving Liu Qian, the head of the treasure bank, is also the beginning of a kind of sales.
In the house of Liu Qian, the head of the treasure store, everyone sat solemnly.
The reason is that this guy made the whole scene more formal, and it turned out to be a split meal!
When they went down to the door of his house, Liu Qian personally greeted him at the door, and his attitude was very respectful.
The yard of his house is in this crowded neighborhood, and there is even a yard of "flowers and bamboos", which is really unique.
The whole yard is repaired with bamboo sandwiches, Fanglin ramps, rockeries, and greenery!
Song Ziqiang secretly asked Wu Dapeng: "If this house with yard is in that time and space, how much is it worth?" ā
Wu Dapeng glanced at the distance between the flower window walls on both sides, and whispered: "Hundreds of millions of ......"
Song Ziqiang scolded secretly, damn it, a seller of broken jewelry, living in such a big house!
He was only now feeling shabby that he only had two stores.
After greeting each other for a while, they sat separately.
All the utensils on the table in front of each of them were of silver.
One person has a bowl, two plates, five pieces of fruit and vegetable plates, and three or five water vegetable bowls, all of which are shining.
The wine set is even more exquisite, the silver bottle, the cup are small to win, the bottle height is only 21 cm, the diameter is 3 cm, the cup is 5 cm high, the diameter is 9.5 cm, and the foot diameter is 3.9 cm.
The bottle has a straight mouth, round shoulders, the abdomen is obliquely closed, the bottom is small, the lid is skimmed, and the body is curved. For the sake of beauty, the cover and mouth hammer are multi-layered, decorated with two continuous deformation Ruyi patterns.
The body of the cup is hammered into a double-layer chrysanthemum petal shape, with bead-like stamens protruding from the inner bottom, and the other cup body is straight and oblique with abduction and circle feet, and the whole body is light and without lines.
These five sets of cutlery, there will be five hundred taels of silver alone!
Wu Dapeng squinted at Song Ziqiang, and after seeing that he finished appreciating it, he put it down again, instead of holding it in his arms, feeling that he had made progress and seen the world.
In this time and space, some big restaurants see the guests come to drink two or three times, they dare to lend it three or five hundred taels of silver wine utensils, even if the poor citizens, brothels come to the store to call for wine, the restaurant also uses silver utensils to send, some drink overnight, the next day to retrieve, do not see the loss.
Occasionally, when silverware is lost in a restaurant, the literati record it as a novelty......
This level of morality is really speechless.
Wu Dapeng thought to himself, if this guy learns from Lu Zhishen in Erlong Mountain, people invite him to drink, and he thinks they are stingy, so he steals other people's wine vessels, which is too embarrassing.
They began to drink the spicilla soup with gusto, which is a cup carved out of papaya, which contains shark fin, dates, tofu, and dried plums, some of which are too sweet to highlight the umami flavor of shark fin......
However, the carving is good, and the papaya also shows the scenery of the three towers of the West Lake.
Wu Dapeng squinted and glanced at Song Ziqiang again, this product has eaten all the bases, and is scraping the papaya meat with a silver spoon to eat.
They were waiting together for a cook to arrive.
Liu Qian said: "...... This cook lady is unusual, she is that He Erniang......"
As soon as the words fell, a few female envoys came first.
They all wore high buns, short clothes with wide necks, and long red skirts, and they walked very reservedly.
Then there were a few more men in green clothes and green baotou, who set up a high wooden square table, a large log vegetable pier, a few short-handled knives, and carried a wooden barrel containing live fish, what kind of fish was in it, and it was not clear to see.
In a few rooms in and out, there was a square stove, and the charcoal fire was already burning just right outside, just when it was red, but there was no smoke.
Then he put an amphora pot on the stove with clean water.
Those maidens began to cook tea, or to wash utensils.
At this time, a cook in a red dress and green dress walked in, her actions were elegant, and she generously crossed her hands at a few people.
Lin'an Chef is really a profession with high skills.
At this time, I saw her tuan's apron and "silver rope climbing arms".
The so-called "arm climbing" is a general tool invented by the people of the Great Song Dynasty for ease of operation.
The sleeves of their sleeves were too wide to be easily made by hand, and they were tied around their necks with ropes to hold them high.
It's strange, they don't want to solve the underlying problem, just make their sleeves narrower, no.
Only high-level craftsmen use silver ropes to "climb their arms", which shows the extraordinary bearing of this cook.
When she dropped her arms and entered, she half-squatted and lifted a fish out of the bucket in a graceful posture.
I didn't see her use any strength, I saw the fish shaking its head and tail in her jade hand, but it didn't see that it could break free.
She paused deliberately to let the bream show its freshness to the fullest.
Then he gently shook the fish, and with a crackling sound, the fish stopped moving on the big log vegetable mound, but only its mouth
The one is closed, which means that it is still alive.
It's real kung fu!
Wang Defa laughed, she paused for a long time just now, the fish had already lacked oxygen, and then she fell, even a fish couldn't stand it, but the time was better controlled, and the more practice, it was okay.
Then she picked up the knife, cut and wiped the criticism, accustomed to the order, the knife flew up and down, the silver light flashed, and there was really the trend of Zhuangzi's metaphor for the fortune of the catty.
In ancient China, sashimi was a very popular food called yuli or fish fish.
The earliest sashimi was carp, and the most famous sashimi were sea bass and bream.
After Du Fu ate the sashimi made of bream, he once praised "the fat and beautiful bream is the first", and the Northern Song Dynasty poet Liu Chu also praised "the bream is like the first jade".
Fish and sashimi are different.
The fish is extremely particular about knife skills, and pays attention to cutting as thin as possible, and sometimes further cut into thin threads, which is called "silk wisps"; And the body, except for the puffer fish body and other kinds of cut as thin as paper, you can see through the pattern of the plate, the rest are mostly fish strips, not very knife work.
Therefore, the sashimi in the dining room of the world is generally more sashimi than fish tart, because it is not so difficult.
In terms of materials, they also choose more marine fish, also because marine fish have fewer spines than freshwater fish, so they are not so difficult to handle. All in all, the simpler the fish for the chef, the better.
But bream is a bit more difficult to deal with, and it has a lot of spines.
But because it is a warm-water fish, the fat content is higher, and the taste of the meat is relatively delicate, so it is used in high-grade wine banquets in this time and space.
The cook He Erniang gently picked and slowly wiped the fish on the ground, and several handmaidens also took turns to carry the plates and sent them to them in turn.
The first to come up was the fish belly, the thin piece of fish was placed on the plate with a blue and white bottom, and you could really see the pattern on the bottom of the plate through the fish...... The pieces are the size of a matchbox.
Wang Defa nodded and praised, this is really practiced, but her hands can still be kept so white, what kind of hand oil does she use to protect her hands?
Song Ziqiang was in a daze at the plate, could this be produced by the official kiln?
Wan Shida saw that a layer of sweat appeared on the woman's face, and then looked at her body shape, she was no longer a virgin
Finish. Wu Dapeng peeked at Liu Qianxing's head, and saw that he used ivory chopsticks to pinch some garlic foam, ginger foam, and green onion foam
A slice of fish on top, then pick up some sauce and spread it on.
Pick up another slice, cover it, then roll two slices in a roll, dip it in a vinegar bowl, and eat.
This kid's chopsticks are used skillfully.
Although Liu Qian sat upright, he saw the performance of the group clearly out of the corner of his eyes.
He had to ask them this time.
Their objects now caused a sensation throughout the court. Because he sold more objects this time, many dignitaries and dignitaries came in response.
His belongings were swept away, but fortunately, although this guy was from overseas, he still understood things and did not go to other houses to release the goods.
However, it is necessary to make sure here again, it is better to sign a contract.
In addition, there are many people who have placed orders, many of them are relatives of the Zhao family, and many of them are princes......
Therefore, it is the key to let them go to sea to transport goods back as soon as possible, and they can't be infatuated with the life of my Great Song Dynasty and no longer go to sea.
It is a pity that too many merchants settled in the Great Song Dynasty and no longer went to sea.
They don't know that there are two reasons for their situation, one is of course the novelty of the object, which is unheard of by the people of the Great Song Dynasty; The second is the result of Jia Pingzhang and Jia Yidao showing off their wealth everywhere.
What kind of era allows people to safely flaunt their wealth? An era that does not believe in the law of the jungle.
The people of the Great Song Dynasty liked to show off their wealth, from the emperor to the common people.
They haven't learned to endure, they haven't learned not to show their wealth and wealth, and they are not afraid that people will see that money is born
Incident.
The emperors of the Great Song Dynasty liked to show off their wealth, and whatever treasures they had at home had to write poems and pass them on.
I really can't help it, and I'm still drawing it, but the last emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, Song Zhengzong, is miserable, right?
Let the bandit group take a fancy to it, people can fight, there is a steel knife in their hands, and everything belongs to them.
All the good things in the past can only be fixed in his memory, for him to regurgitate over and over again in the hungry and cold Five Kingdoms City.
Tang Dynasty poets also loved to show off their wealth, and there was a Tang Dynasty poet named Wei Chulao who wrote a poem to show off his wealth: "Ten red silk night jade." ā
But Shen Kuo of the Great Song Dynasty ridiculed him for not seeing the world: "Ten red silk for the tent, less than four or five feet square, I don't know how to stretch my feet?" This so-called has never been close to the rich child's family. ā
Shen Kuo's conclusion is that "the Tang people wrote rich and noble poems, and remembered more of their prosperity in supporting utensils and clothes, which was shocking to the poor eyes."
Look at how inappropriate it is to speak.
As the prime minister, Cai Jing is not thrifty, but even openly shows off his wealth.
A small gathering between officials, scholars, and doctors usually requires about a consistent amount of money, enough for a family of five to eat a month's worth of rice.
When Cai Jing invited his colleagues to eat, a single crab roe steamed bun was "more than 1,300 yuan", and this meal was at least tens of thousands.
The master of "with a lot of money" will be eaten naked, and this guy is not afraid of being investigated!
The social atmosphere has always been that the upper strata first became bad, and then led the lower strata of the people.
However, if you want to say that the quality of the common people is getting lower day by day, no one dares to jump out and distinguish it.
During the Southern Song Dynasty, there was also a rich girl named Xu Lan.
During the Chunyou period of the Southern Song Dynasty, she was the most famous.
How wide is it? Whenever a guest comes, she will make the home into "the hall is tortuous and gorgeous, the pavilion and the garden pool are all there, to the brocade valerian as the lichen, the dry red four tight yarn for the single gold curtain, the maid and maid to hold the music for more than ten generations, the gold, silver and jade to play, the celebrity calligraphy and painting, the food and the like, all are exquisite, so it is the crown of the three Wu." ā
The key is that Xu Lan can last a lifetime and be buried in Tiger Hill after death.
Later generations hung on and left a sentence of emotion: "This is also the noble among prostitutes." ā
What's more, ordinary people also form associations to show off their wealth.
